Hi all

some photos of my new choofa if anyone interested, just ready for vanning next week.

Pulls apart for better storage, but I had to buy a smaller camp oven to fit inside.

Yep made it from ideas provided by others, on here plus friends. Took 2 days messing around.

Cheap to make, but I had most material on hand,,, so about $10 for leg bolts and mesh at Lions shed sale, and $5 for stainless steel hinge.

If you had to buy it second hand I'd allow say $40-50 for bits and pieces.

Looks great Baz. Has a pig on it's side look about it.

I personally like the pig cos it has a chimney that takes the smoke up a little higher. I have trouble around smoke so tend not to be around camp fires MUCH.

Great job though.

 

Edit....Maybe you could call it a "Chig"
